I think I see what you are saying. Essentially the "effort ceiling" for FPTP is very low - everybody gets a single choice. But RCV raises the ceiling, so that high-effort voters have more power than low-effort voters (people who still only put a single choice). This gives advantage to people who have the time and resources to research candidates more thoroughly and make more detailed votes
